    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_pump

    The basic working principle of an air-operated double diaphragm pump. Cross-section sketch of diaphragm fuel pump Air-operated double diaphragm pump. A diaphragm pump (also known as a Membrane pump) is a positive displacement pump that uses a combination of the reciprocating action of a rubber, thermoplastic or teflon diaphragm and suitable valves on either side of the diaphragm (check valve ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_Fab

    Orbit Fab is developing in-space refueling systems to increase the lifespans of satellites that are in need of additional fuel. The company currently has a contract to refuel satellite-servicing satellites for Astroscale in geostationary orbit with 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb) of xenon fuel [9] in addition to a total of US$21 million in defense contracts, including a SpaceWERX contract for a ...

  4. Orbital propellant depot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_propellant_depot

    An orbital propellant depot is a cache of propellant that is placed in orbit around Earth or another body to allow spacecraft or the transfer stage of the spacecraft to be fueled in space. It is one of the types of space resource depots that have been proposed for enabling infrastructure-based space exploration . [ 1 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit@home

    orbit@home [1] was a BOINC-based volunteer computing project of the Planetary Science Institute. It uses the "Orbit Reconstruction, Simulation and Analysis" [2] framework to optimize the search strategies that are used to find near-Earth objects. On March 4, 2008, orbit@home completed the installation of its new server and officially opened to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_maneuver

    In orbital mechanics, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit used to transfer between two circular orbits of different altitudes, in the same plane. The orbital maneuver to perform the Hohmann transfer uses two engine impulses which move a spacecraft onto and off the transfer orbit.

  7. Orbital blowout fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_blowout_fracture

    The clinically important structures surrounding the orbit include the optic nerve at the apex of the orbit as well as the superior orbital fissure which contains cranial nerves 3, 4, and 6 therefore controlling ocular muscles of eye movement. [15] Inferior to the orbit is the infraorbital nerve which is purely sensory.

  8. Orbital mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_mechanics

    From a circular orbit, thrust applied in a direction opposite to the satellite's motion changes the orbit to an elliptical one; the satellite will descend and reach the lowest orbital point (the periapse) at 180 degrees away from the firing point; then it will ascend back. The period of the resultant orbit will be less than that of the original ...

    On a normal (low-orbit) mission to the ISS, the risk was approximately 1 in 300, but the Hubble telescope repair mission was flown at the higher orbital altitude of 560 km (350 mi) where the risk was initially calculated at a 1-in-185 (due in part to the 2009 satellite collision). A re-analysis with better debris numbers reduced the estimated ...
